Jiang Wenyuan soon arrived at the imperial study, and Emperor Xia Jing asked, "What's going on with that rumor?"

You don't care! And the box, what kind of treasure is in it, how to go and where to take it.

Even the guards guarding the palace gate saw it, and Linghui kept talking to the box! ”

Jiang Wenyuan knelt down at that time and said in a deep voice: "The box is indeed a thing. But it's not anything of value, it's grave! ”

"What do you say? Grave soil, what is she doing with that thing if she has nothing to do? ”

Emperor Xia Jing was startled, and said secretly, this little girl shouldn't be really crazy. If so, his son will probably have to go crazy! That's not going to work!

Jiang Wenyuan said with sadness: "It's the grave!" Before leaving for Beijing, Linghui went to Yumen Pass again, pinched a handful of soil from the graves of each sacrificial soldier and put it in a box.

Linghui said that most of them had never been to the capital in their lives, and she wanted to take them to see them.

Look at the land they guarded, and see how prosperous and beautiful the Son of Heaven they once longed for the most.

We also built a martyr's shrine next to the ancestral shrine at home. Linghui said that after she took them all over the capital, she would enshrine them in the ancestral shrine forever.

In this way, the fifteenth day of the new year is celebrated, and some people offer incense.

Without them carrying the weight ahead, how can our years be quiet, and they should not be forgotten. Speaking of this, Jiang Wenyuan couldn't cry anymore.

After calming down a bit, he added: "Linghui has been fulfilling her promise and taking (them) around these days, but she didn't expect to be rumored to be like this. ”

After hearing this, Emperor Xia Jing was silent for a long time, and said with a long sigh: "Linghui is really a pure heart, I'm ashamed!" ”

He paused for a moment and said, "That's it, Aiqing, don't repair your martyr's shrine."

If you want to cultivate, you should build in a place that everyone can see, so that all the people of Daxia can come and pay homage to them, and the money will come out of my private treasury.

Linghui has always been smart, you go back and ask her if she has any good ideas, if there is, put it forward, and take it to the court tomorrow to discuss together. ”

Jiang Wenyuan was overjoyed: "The ministers thank Your Majesty for the great grace of all the martyrs who sacrificed." ”

Emperor Xia Jing said: "It was Linghui who reminded me. Heroes should not be forgotten, and a dynasty that forgets heroes is destined not to go far. ”

After going down, Jiang Wenyuan told his daughter what happened during the day. Jiang Yuqing never cared about any innocuous rumors.

But when he heard that the emperor promised to repair the memorial facilities, he was instantly overjoyed: "Daddy, Your Majesty, he really said that!" ”

Jiang Wenyuan said with a smile: "Really! ”

Jiang Yuqing hugged the box and smiled, laughed and cried, and whispered: "Hear, your blood is not shed in vain." ”

She drew the design overnight, and it was painted according to the general appearance of the monument to the heroes of the previous life.

The next day, after the matter was preached in the court, it naturally caused an uproar. As for the erection of the monument, there were some people who opposed it and some people who were in favor of it, and those who were in favor of it were in the majority.

Only a few pedantic and stubborn civil officials spoke fiercely against it, saying that it was not in line with etiquette. The generals were overwhelmingly supportive.

They are all human beings, and they have all contributed to this country. Why after the death of the literati, the tablet can be admired by future generations in the temple, and the soldiers can only wrap their bodies in horse leather, bury their bones in yellow sand, and do not even have a name or surname.

Several generals were angry, including Lao Zhen Guogong and Qin Lao General, and even moved directly.

Grabbing the most opposed civil officials and pressing them to the ground was a wild beating, knocking out several teeth.

If it weren't for the fact that the old generals were afraid of killing people and deliberately retracted their strength, a few more such bundles would not be enough for them to beat.

Damn, what the hell. A group of hypocrites who are full of benevolence and righteousness, but in fact they are the most morally corrupt!

In the end, it was the emperor who made the final decision: "It was built at the gate of the palace, in the most conspicuous position, and the cost was paid by my private treasury."

Jiang Aiqing: You will submit the drawings of the monument to the Ministry of Industry for review, and the details will be further revised and discussed.

As for the box of grave soil that Linghui brought back, it will be placed at the bottom of the monument. They protect my Great Xia with their flesh and blood, and they should be admired by my people for eternity. ”

"Minister, Jiang Wenyuan thanked Your Majesty on behalf of his daughter Linghui! Linghui said that if a monument is built, she is willing to donate a thousand taels of silver. ”

These words are like opening the floodgates, and the generals have come out in solidarity, "The minister also gave a thousand taels" and "The minister donated five hundred taels!" ”

.......

Jiang Wenyuan asked people to take a pen and paper to record on the spot, and in the end, he raised as much as 31,000 taels of silver. Coupled with the emperor's private treasury, it is enough to build a monument.

The professionals of the Ministry of Industry revised and finalized the site, mobilized manpower and material resources, and the emperor personally supervised the construction, and the construction of the monument soon began.

Since the day the construction began, Jiang Yuqing has been going to the monument every day.

The craftsmen who repaired the monument also knew that this little girl who was here every day was the legendary county lord who was famous all over the world and the initiator of the construction of this monument.

I can't help but be in awe of her.

Not only that, since the news spread, those smoky rumors disappeared without a trace overnight.

When Jiang Yuqing appeared somewhere with the box on her back, everyone paid attention to her.

Many merchants were even reluctant to accept money, saying: "County Lord, let the grass people do their part!" ”

Several times, Jiang Yuqing met the military generals of the court, although they did not know each other, they did not say a word, and directly knelt down on one knee to her.

She didn't know that in the hearts of these soldiers, her small figure was another monument.

The project is in full swing, and the time has come to mid-October. The late autumn wind has brought full coolness, and the flying leaves are the last stubbornness of the autumn girl.

In the small kitchen of Jiang Guogong's mansion, Jiang Yuqing was coughing, and she was driven out by her mother by the back collar.

Lu Shi said with a stinky face: "At least today, I don't want to see you in the kitchen again!" ”

Lu's is angry, her baby daughter is good at everything, but what her daughter's family is good at is not fine.

Qin, chess, calligraphy and painting can't, needle chisel and embroidery can't work. Although cooking is not to the point of poisoning people, it is definitely not delicious.

Let her make a fire, she can choke people to death, and she doesn't know that her house is burning the kitchen.

This is terrible, what should I do if I continue like this, I will not let my husband dislike him to death if I become a relative in the future.

Obviously, when Zhou was first arrested, her daughter wrapped up everything. It can be seen that this thing is also inaccurate.

Jiang Yuqing pursed his lips, looked at his black palm, lowered his head and wiped it on his face with the back of his hand.

But I heard a low laugh of "poof", and a warm and clean voice sounded. "If you wipe it again, you'll be a little flower cat."

This voice seemed to be a little familiar, and when I raised my head, I saw a young man not far away. Jiang Yuqing was stunned for a few breaths, and then pounced happily: "Little brother! ”

The person who came was Jing Yan, who had just come back from the imperial tomb and came to find Jiang Yuqing.

I heard from the people in the house that she learned to cook with the Lu family in the small kitchen, so she went straight here. I don't want to see the scene where she was driven out by the Lu family's disgust.

Jing Yan bent down to hold her little face with one hand, took out the handkerchief with the other, carefully wiped the black ash from her face, and said with a smile: "How did you make yourself look like this!" ”

Jiang Yuqing complained: "It's not my mother yet, so I have to learn to cook." This work is like piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, it is completely a matter in the field of art, where can I do it as a rough man. ”

Jing Yan wiped her hands clean, picked up her little fingers and wiped them one by one, and comforted: "Qingqing is very good, if you can't learn it, you won't learn it." Anyway, there will be someone to do it in the future, and you don't have to do it yourself. ”

Jiang Yuqing said depressedly: "I think so too, but my mother doesn't listen." said that if I can't learn, I will be rejected by my husband's family in the future. ”

She paused for a moment, and then said indignantly: "How old am I, my mother is thinking about letting me marry in the future." What's so good about getting married, isn't it nice for me to live alone? ”

Jing Yan frowned and said: "Qingqing's idea is not right, you are a daughter's family, how can your daughter's family not marry?" ”

Jiang Yuqing snorted and said, "There's nothing wrong with it. Just like Sister Yuan, after getting married, she has to manage the family affairs and her husband's concubines, and take care of her concubines, which is simply sad. Alas, forget it, let's not talk about this. ”

She looked up at him carefully, then stretched out her hand to compare herself with his height, and sadly found that she had only reached his chest.

The little man's sadness is so big, obviously he is still an immortal cultivator, but he can't grow up to be a mortal. I can't live this day!

I haven't seen him for four years, and the little boy at the beginning has grown into a humble gentleman, with stones like jade, pine trees like emerald, Lang Yan is unique, and there is no other in the world.

Jing Yan saw that she had been staring at herself, so she asked her with a smile, "What's wrong?" I don't know it! ”

Jiang Yuqing said: "No, it's just that the changes are too great, and you are getting better and better." ”

Jing Yan rubbed her head dotingly, took her hand and said, "Let's go for a walk, where do you want to play, I'll take you!" ”

Jiang Yuqing said: "No, my garden is big enough, let's just take a walk, it's time to eat in a while."

Today, my mother made spicy fried dried fish, the dried fish was sent from Qingzhou's hometown, but it was delicious, you can eat more when you eat later. ”

Jing Yan: "...... Good! ”

As a result, the two didn't go anywhere, they played in the Guogong Mansion for an afternoon, and Jing Yan even had dinner at the Guogong Mansion before reluctantly going back.

As soon as he left, Jiang Wenyuan immediately closed the door and asked her daughter-in-law, what did the prince do in the mansion today?

Lu said: "I didn't do anything, I just played in the garden with Dangbao and Xiao Jiu Xiao Shi." What's the matter, you're like a Tartar offender. ”

Jiang Wenyuan said with a toothache: "Don't let him come to play with the good treasure in the future, this kid is not well-intentioned." ”

Lu Shihu said suspiciously: "You mean, the prince is interesting to our good baby?" ”

Jiang Wenyuan said: "I have to guard against it!" ”

Lu Shi said speechlessly: "The prince is sixteen, and he will soon be at the age of choosing a concubine." How old is our good baby, I'm afraid you don't think too much! Besides, how do you prevent it? Can you stop it? ”

Jiang Wenyuan immediately died down.

After nearly two months of day and night construction, the monument was finally built before the snow.

The full name of the monument is "Monument to the Heroes of Great Xia", which was inscribed by Emperor Xia Jing himself.

The whole stele is eight zhang nine high, there are two layers of pedestals, the stele body is made of the whole piece of granite, the lower layer of Sumeru seat is carved with eight huge white marble reliefs, recorded the great events that have occurred since the founding of the Great Xia, among them, there are the "great victory of Yumen Pass" that occurred a few years ago! ”

There is also a concave granite platform built in front of the monument. The stele is surrounded by a white marble railing surrounded by steps, and the steps are surrounded by a circle of pine and cypress.

Qintian supervised the selection of the auspicious day of the ninth day of the lunar month and held a ceremony to unveil the monument.

On the day of the ceremony, heavy snow fell in the capital, and the entire palace gate square was crowded with people who came to participate in the ceremony spontaneously.

Flags are hunting, war drums are rumbling, and long trumpets are resounding in the sky.

When the auspicious time came, hundreds of officials and people knelt down, and Emperor Xia Jing, who was dressed in a crown robe, unveiled the tablet. After that, Prince Jingyan took over the heavy repacked golden silk nanmu box from Jiang Yuqing's hand, stepped on the snow, and steadily sent it up the steps step by step.

At this moment, Jiang Yuqing, General Qin and several generals who had participated in the big battle and personally sent the soldiers to the funeral were all in tears, but they were full of relief.

In their lifetimes, they finally waited for the day when the country and the emperor they were loyal to would be affirmed for them. The loyal souls of the soldiers finally have a home.

When Emperor Xia Jing personally put the box into the groove of the stone platform in front of the stele, and pressed the stone cover on the trap box.

A golden ray of sunlight broke through the thick clouds and shone on the monument's body in the snowstorm. After that, there was more and more golden light, the clouds quickly dispersed, and the wind stopped and the snow stopped.

A brilliant sun hung high above the sky, shining on the earth, dyeing the whole snow with a warm layer of gold.

Such a spectacle really stunned everyone. I don't know who shouted: "Daji! God bless me Daxia! Good luck! ”

The crowd cheered.

Emperor Xia Jing looked at all this, and he also laughed heartily, and he was in a very good mood. He looked at the majestic and solemn monument and sighed, even the heavens are affirming his approach!

Heroes should not be forgotten!
